141: Underground Palace World Thunder Kill

The tomb door closed.

Everyone looked at the tomb door in front of them and exchanged glances.

"Third Prince, is this the true entrance to the tomb?"

A Martial Artist spoke.

The Third Prince nodded.

"Yes, this is the tomb door. Only by passing through it can we truly enter the tomb's underground palace."

"Then just push it open."

A big man spoke, stepping forward, his fist enveloped in True Qi, a layer of light condensing.

"Bang—!!"

He punched the ten-zhang high tomb door, but it remained motionless.

"Hmm?"

The big man's expression changed.

The power of that punch, let alone a door, could have blown up a mountain Peak.

Yet, the tomb door showed no movement, and there was no Formation present, which made it seem very strange.

"Hmph—!"

The big man let out a low roar, veins bulging on his arm, True Qi erupting again. He threw a punch that compressed the air, like a meteor hammer, smashing heavily onto the tomb door.

"Bang—!"

A muffled sound echoed, but the tomb door remained motionless.

Third Prince: "..."

"Stop. This tomb door is made from a Fusion of Heavenly Crystal and Earth's Breathing Soil, and it's integrated with the entire tomb. Even the power of the God Realm cannot break it open," the Third Prince said.

The big man withdrew his hand, a hint of embarrassment on his Face.

"Then how do we open it?"

A Silver-haired old man asked.

"This door has a mechanism. Just open the mechanism. Leng Yue, go open the door."

The Third Prince spoke. Beside him, the black-clad woman nodded lightly, stepped forward, and with a swift movement, instantly flew up to the top of the tomb door.

She fumbled around on the tomb door, then, under everyone's watchful eyes, Leng Yue lightly pressed a raised spot.

"Rumble ~!!"

The next moment, accompanied by a rumbling sound, the tightly shut tomb door instantly opened.

A huge passage, three zhang high and two zhang wide, appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Whoosh ~!"

Leng Yue moved, returning to the Third Prince's side.

"Alright, let's go."

The Third Prince spoke, taking the lead and stepping into the true passage leading to the tomb.

Everyone followed closely, entering the passage after the Third Prince.

Han Li was still at the very end. As the group stepped into the tomb passage, with a rumble, the tomb door automatically closed.

However, luminous fluorite illuminated both sides of the passage, preventing it from falling into darkness.

Everyone looked back, and the Third Prince said, "Don't be surprised. This is normal. The tomb door automatically closes after you enter."

"Then how do we get out?" a Martial Artist asked.

"You can return the way you came, or there are other passages to leave. Let's go, we're already behind."

With that, the Third Prince quickened his pace, heading deeper into the tomb.

No one asked further, following the Third Prince deeper into the tomb... The tomb passage was very long.

They walked for almost three li, but there was still no end in sight.

It seemed to stretch on endlessly.

After advancing about four li, faint glows began to rise ahead.

Suddenly, the view ahead opened up.

"My goodness, is this the Great Sage's tomb?"

Looking at the scene before them, everyone's eyelids twitched.

Ahead, tall mountains stood, rivers flowed, and a layer of red mist permeated the air.

Faintly, it seemed they could see stars like the moon reflected in the Void Realm.

This was a tomb?

This was probably an underground palace world!

Han Li also felt a sense of shock.

This scene was quite visually impactful.

The Third Prince had previously said that the tomb of Great Sage Baoxiang was an underground palace world, and he had been somewhat skeptical.

But the scene before him, to call it an underground palace world, was not an exaggeration at all.

"Could it be that we've entered another space-time?" A thought surfaced in Han Li's mind.

Judging from the scene before him, it seemed that the previous mountain was not as vast as this underground palace world.

To use an entire space as a tomb world, this was truly a great Divine Ability.

Supreme Paragon of the Human Realm, from this point alone, it was not an idle boast.

Red mist covered the sky of the underground palace world, illuminated by faint glows.

Everyone felt as if they had walked into a real-life Hell.

"The underground palace world has many Night Rakshasa demons, and also some powerful Demon Corpses. Everyone, do not be careless, you need to be careful."

The Third Prince spoke, reminding them.

"Demon Corpses!"

Listening to the Third Prince's reminder, everyone's nerves tensed.

There were Demon Corpses here?

Wasn't this Great Sage Baoxiang's tomb?

How could there be Demon Corpses?

Could it be that these were Demon Corpses formed from people Great Sage Baoxiang had killed and buried here, who then turned into Demon Corpses after death?

Everyone's vigilance deepened, each activating their True Qi, preparing for a full-scale attack.

The Third Prince looked at everyone's expressions, his Face calm. However, when he looked at Han Li at the very back, a subtle glint flashed in his eyes.

Immediately, the Third Prince continued to lead the way, and everyone walked deeper into the underground palace world.

"Whoosh—!"

After advancing two or three li, a strange sound suddenly came from the Void Realm. Immediately after, a black light attacked everyone.

One person, quick-witted, unleashed his True Qi and punched out from a distance.

"Boom—!!"

An explosion sounded, and the black light shattered. It turned out to be a black coffin.

The coffin burst open, and a monster, one zhang tall, appeared before everyone's eyes.

Its eyes were blood-red, and its entire body exuded a strong Corpse Qi.

This was indeed a Demon Corpse!

And it was a Demon King-level Demon Corpse.

Strong Corpse Qi permeated the air. This Demon Corpse was an Intermediate Demon King-level Demon Corpse.

But it was different from the Demon Corpses they had seen before.

This Demon Corpse was covered in hair like weeds.

Silver hair covered its entire body, revealing only a pair of blood-red eyes.

If not for the strong Corpse Qi on its body, it looked no different from a wild man.

"Roar—!"

The Demon Corpse let out a roaring shriek, causing strong vibrations in the air.

"I'll take care of this beast!"

A big man spoke, and as he did, he revealed a precious saber.

It exuded the aura of a Low Grade Spirit Treasure.

True Qi surged, and a Saber Qi several zhang long instantly attacked the silver-haired Demon Corpse.

"Roar—"

Looking at the incoming attack, the Demon Corpse roared. A powerful sound wave vibrated outwards, and in a flash, the Demon Corpse raised its hand and swiped. The strong Corpse Qi formed a claw, which directly collided with the Saber Qi.

The air exploded, and ripples spread.

The big man's attack did not harm the Demon Corpse at all; the powerful attack was easily shattered.

"Cracking Fire Slash!"

The big man roared, activating his True Qi. The precious saber emitted a crimson light, and a high-temperature aura spread out.

His figure moved, and he directly slashed at the Demon Corpse.

"Clang—!"

The Demon Corpse raised its hand, colliding its body with the Low Grade Spirit Treasure saber, producing a metallic sound.

Some of its hair fell off, but it did not cause much damage.

The big man's precious saber, on the other hand, vibrated continuously, and his body retreated several zhang.

His Qi and blood churned within him.

And at this moment, the Demon Corpse roared, its body rushing towards the big man like a silver-white lightning bolt.

"Chirp—!"

At this critical moment, a sword light flashed, and a powerful Sword Intent permeated the air. An peerless sword instantly struck out.

The Demon Corpse's head was directly severed, and a figure appeared in front of the big man.

He held a sky-blue precious sword in his hand; it was Han Li.

The big man's Face turned pale. Han Li, holding the precious sword, directly cut open the Demon Corpse's body. Under everyone's watchful eyes, he took out a Corpse Pill and put it into his pouch.

"Many thanks, Young Hero Han, for your assistance." The big man recovered, cupped his hands, and bowed.

"We're on the same path, so we should look out for each other," Han Li said, casually putting away his Tian Shuang Sword.

The big man nodded, and everyone else also recovered.

"Be careful, let's continue." The Third Prince spoke, moving on.

Everyone followed closely, heading deeper into the underground palace.

The Great Sage's tomb was vast and boundless.

They crossed rivers and climbed mountains, but still could not see the end.

This was completely another space.

They even doubted whether they were still in the Rakshasa Ruins.

"Boom—!"

As everyone advanced, a loud noise suddenly erupted ahead.

Strong battle fluctuations swept over.

Demonic Qi permeated the air, and various martial arts fluctuations bloomed.

Other people were fighting against demons.

Everyone's spirits instantly lifted.

After two days of entering, they finally met other people.

"Let's go see."

The Third Prince spoke, his body like lightning as he headed towards the direction of the battle fluctuations.

Everyone was unwilling to fall behind, activating their True Qi, moving at the fastest speed towards the direction of the battle fluctuations.

Han Li naturally did not fall behind, following behind everyone, heading together.

Soon, the group arrived at the location where the battle fluctuations came from.

Between a mountain hollow, everyone stood on the hillside and looked down.

In the mountain hollow, numerous figures could be seen in a chaotic battle.

Their opponents were a group of Night Rakshasa.

There were about a hundred Night Rakshasa.

Among them, there were more than twenty Demon King-level Night Rakshasa alone.

There were six Peak Demon King-level Night Rakshasa.

The rest were Intermediate Demon King and Elementary Demon King-level Night Rakshasa.

And the other dozens of Night Rakshasa were all Peak-level monsters.

This was the strongest group of Night Rakshasa they had encountered.

However, it was not too surprising; there were many demons in the Great Sage's tomb to begin with.

Besides the Night Rakshasa, there were also three Demon Corpses.

These three Demon Corpses were all covered in red hair, and the aura emanating from their Corpse Qi indicated that they were three Peak Demon King-level Demon Corpses.

Adding the six Peak Demon King Night Rakshasa, there were a total of nine Peak Demon King-level beings.

The group of people being besieged was clearly at a disadvantage.

Blood permeated the air, and a bloody scent enveloped the area.

Among this group of people, there were men and women, old and young.

Among them, there were also nine Peak of the Acquired Realm beings.

Just enough, one for each.

However, compared to the Night Rakshasa and Demon Corpses of the same level, their strength was clearly at a disadvantage.

The situation for the others was even more tragic.

The surrounding rocks shattered, and vegetation was destroyed.

Powerful fluctuations spread. Being besieged by a large group of Night Rakshasa, some people had already suffered severe injuries, and within a few breaths, several Xiantian martial artists had even died.

"Your Highness, it seems to be people from the Heaven and Earth Sect." At this moment, Leng Yue, beside the Third Prince, spoke.

"Heaven and Earth Sect... Xiong Ba."

Listening to Leng Yue, a piece of information instantly appeared in Han Li's mind.

"Your Highness, should we intervene?" Another Martial Artist spoke.

The Third Prince looked at the battle, his gaze solemn.

"Third Prince, should we eliminate the Heaven and Earth Sect as well?" At this moment, Han Li's voice transmission suddenly reached the Third Prince's ear.

"!!!!"

Hearing Han Li's voice transmission, the Third Prince's heart trembled.

"Young Hero Han, the Heaven and Earth Sect and this prince have a good relationship. In the future, this prince will also need the Heaven and Earth Sect's support," the Third Prince quickly replied via telepathic message.

"Understood."

Han Li replied with a telepathic message.

"It's someone from the Heaven and Earth Sect. Third Prince, should we intervene?" another person asked.

"Act, but try to ensure your own safety and provide support," the Third Prince said.

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying Tian Shuang Sword Qi suddenly shot into the sky.

"Clang—!"

A sword cry tore through the firmament, over three hundred dazzling sword shadows soared, and terrifying Sword Qi permeated the air.

The next second, before everyone's eyes, Han Li, holding the Tian Shuang Sword, stepped through the Void Realm like a peerless sword immortal, and three hundred sword shadows whistled out.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!"

Overwhelming sword shadows tore through the Void Realm and rushed towards the battlefield.

At this moment, the people of the Heaven and Earth Sect instantly noticed, looked up, and felt their scalps tingle.

"Boom, boom, boom!!!"

Between the mountain hollows, earth-shattering explosions rang out, and sharp Sword Qi waves spread and swept through, destroying everything.

The sword shadows descended like divine swords, carrying a chilling aura.

Earth-shaking sounds rang out, and a strong scent of blood filled the air.

With a single charge, over a hundred Night Rakshasa, excluding six Peak Demon Kings and three Peak Demon Corpse, were all utterly slaughtered in one strike.

The cold Qi was like a storm, and the Protective Aura of the Xiantian martial artists of the Heaven and Earth Sect trembled, sending them flying from the powerful sword waves.

"Puff—!"

One by one, the Xiantian martial artists were sent flying and landed, spitting out fresh blood, their eyes filled with horror.

Just being on the edge of this attack made them tremble and spit blood. If they had taken a direct hit, they would have definitely died.

Before everyone could recover, brilliant lightning exploded.

"Rumble!!!"

Lightning flashed, shooting directly towards the heart of the sky, and a gigantic Thunder God Avatar materialized.

Raging lightning trembled.

With a bang, the six Peak Night Rakshasa Demon Kings were directly sent flying. Before they could land, lightning gathered in the air, forming a lightning seal that descended forcefully.

"Boom!!!"

Ten miles of land trembled, the earth cracked and mountains collapsed. Amidst the lightning, only a faint green-clothed figure could be seen.

Subsequently, a Dragon's roar sounded, and the three Peak Demon Corpse were engulfed in a golden light.

"Boom—!!"

A massive sound rang out again, and from within the destructive light waves, a green-clothed figure stepped out.

The dust and smoke were dispersed by the fluctuations, and the scene before them was clearly presented to everyone's eyes.

The six Peak Demon King Night Rakshasa and the three Demon Corpse were all dead.

Their bodies were split open, and their demon cores and corpse cores were taken.

In just a few dozen breaths, the battle was directly reversed.

It directly subsided.

However, the terrifying aura lingering in the air still made people tremble with fear.

On the hillside, the Martial Artists behind the Third Prince watched in shock.

Damn it... does it have to be this fast!

Before they could even move to support, Han Li alone had directly wiped out all the demons.

Among them, nine Peak Demon King-level existences were instantly annihilated.

Is this the strength a Xiantian martial artist can possess?!

This level of strength was simply terrifying... Heaven and Earth Demon Seed (Level 6 99%)

"Just one percent more, and I'll Breakthrough to Level 7."

Looking at the panel displayed before him, Han Li's heart was filled with joy.

"I am Ye Xukong of the Heaven and Earth Sect. Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for your assistance."

At this moment, the voice of a young man sounded.

Han Li looked at the young man before him.

His hair was disheveled, looking somewhat disheveled, but his aura was profound, indicating he was an Peak of the Acquired Realm existence.

At this moment, the other members of the Heaven and Earth Sect also recovered their senses.

They all stepped forward to express their gratitude.

"Whoosh—!"

On the hillside, the Third Prince's figure moved, instantly appearing before Han Li and the Heaven and Earth Sect members.

"Third Prince!"

Seeing the Third Prince appear, Ye Xukong was slightly surprised.

"Ye Xukong, long time no see," the Third Prince said with a hearty laugh.

"Third Prince, is this Fellow Daoist perhaps with you?" Ye Xukong recovered and looked at Han Li beside him.

"Yes, this is Young Hero Han, Han Li, from the Wu Dynasty. He was invited by this prince to explore the Rakshasa Ruins."

The Third Prince nodded.

"From the Wu Dynasty..."

Ye Xukong looked at Han Li in surprise.

"This time, thanks to Young Hero Han's intervention, otherwise, it would have been dangerous," the Third Prince said.

Hearing this, Ye Xukong and the Heaven and Earth Sect members exchanged glances.

"Thank you, Third Prince and Young Hero Han, for your help this time. I and my Junior Brothers and Elders will not forget this."

Ye Xukong clasped his hands and bowed again.

"Haha, we're all our own people, don't be so formal," the Third Prince chuckled.

"Fellow Daoist Han, for your help this time, when we get out, I hope you'll give me some Face. I must properly thank Fellow Daoist."

Ye Xukong looked at Han Li and said with a smile.

"No need. I intervened at the Third Prince's request. If you want to thank someone, thank the Third Prince," Han Li said indifferently.

Hearing this, the Third Prince's smile grew even brighter.

"Of course, of course," Ye Xukong nodded.

"The Third Prince must be thanked, but Fellow Daoist Han's help must also be acknowledged. We, the people of the Heaven and Earth Sect, are not ungrateful."

"You're right," the Third Prince said with a smile, nodding.

Ye Xukong looked at the Third Prince and Han Li, and said, "Third Prince, the First Prince and Second Prince have already brought people and are probably nearing the true Great Sage Baoxiang Mausoleum."

"Hmm, they're one step ahead of me, which is normal," the Third Prince nodded.

"However, Opportunity is about luck. Those who arrive first don't necessarily get it first," the Third Prince said with a smile.

"That's true, luck and strength are also needed. With a strong person like Fellow Daoist Han helping, Third Prince, you will surely have a great harvest this trip," Ye Xukong said with a smile.

"Then I'll take your auspicious words," the Third Prince chuckled, then said, "We can't delay too long, so we'll be heading off now."

"Alright, see you at the mausoleum," Ye Xukong nodded.

Subsequently, the Third Prince and Han Li moved, taking their group, and quickly left this battlefield.

Watching their retreating figures, Ye Xukong and the Heaven and Earth Sect members exchanged glances.

"Han Li of the Wu Dynasty..."

"So young, but how come I've never heard of him?" Ye Xukong frowned.

"I think I've heard that name before," an Elder said at this moment.

"Hmm?" Hearing this, Ye Xukong and the Heaven and Earth Sect members immediately looked at the Elder who spoke.

"Elder Bai, are you aware of this person's background?"

Ye Xukong's eyes lit up as he looked at the Elder and asked.

Elder Bai frowned and said, "I've only heard of him; I don't know if it's true."

"The champion of the Nine Provinces Tournament previously held in the Wu Dynasty seemed to be named Han Li," Elder Bai said slowly.

"Nine Provinces Tournament Champion!"

"No wonder this person's strength is so formidable!"

Hearing this, Ye Xukong's gaze sharpened.

"At the time, I heard that when this person won the championship, his cultivation was only at the Innate Qi Realm," Elder Bai said.

"Winning the championship at the Innate Qi Realm?!"

Ye Xukong was stunned.

Although he wasn't too familiar with the situation in the Wu Dynasty, he knew some things.

For the Nine Provinces Tournament, one needed at least Peak of the Acquired Realm cultivation to win the championship.

Winning the championship at the Xiantian Second Realm had never happened in the history of the Nine Provinces Tournament.

"From which major power in the Wu Dynasty does this person come from?" Ye Xukong asked Elder Bai.

"If it's the same person, then it's the Qingyuan Sect," Elder Bai said.

"Qingyuan Sect..."

Ye Xukong's eyelids twitched.

Looking at the Void Realm, he pondered for a moment, "This person's strength is so great, he's probably not far from Breakthrough to the God Realm. When we get out, I'll have to tell Master about this situation."

"Indeed, this person's potential is too great. Breakthrough to the God Realm will definitely not be an issue. Xukong, when you inherit the great position in the future, you will also need some powerful friends. This person, even if you can't befriend him, you must not offend him," Elder Bai looked at him and said.

"Don't worry, I understand that," Ye Xukong nodded.

"Alright, let's not talk about this for now. Let's recover first, then head to the mausoleum," Ye Xukong said.

Everyone nodded, then sat down cross-legged, each taking out Medicinal Pills to quickly recover from their injuries... After this upheaval, Han Li and his group continued deeper into the underground palace.

The underground palace of the Great Sage Baoxiang Mausoleum was astonishingly vast.

In the air, the red mist grew denser, and faintly, there were even flashes of lightning streaking and exploding within the red mist.

The demonic Qi permeating the world also grew more intense.

A day passed.

Along the way, they didn't encounter any demons.

"Third Prince, have we not arrived yet?" a Martial Artist asked.

"Almost, we'll be there in a little while," the Third Prince said.

Everyone's spirits lifted, initially thinking they would arrive quickly, but they had underestimated the vastness of the underground palace world.

They had entered the underground palace world through the mausoleum gate for a full day, yet still hadn't arrived... "We're here!"

In the Void Realm, the Third Prince spoke, his gaze fixed on the front.

Han Li and the Martial Artists also looked ahead.

Not far away, a mausoleum as massive as a mountain appeared before everyone's eyes.

Within this mausoleum, the presence of Formation Qi could be clearly felt.

The true mausoleum.

After more than a day, they had finally arrived.

"Be careful, there are still Restrictions within the mausoleum," the Third Prince said.

Everyone nodded, then their figures moved, swiftly heading towards the mountain-sized mausoleum.

Upon arriving before this massive mausoleum.

They could see over a dozen passages, each two zhang tall, leading into the interior of the mausoleum.

They were dark and deep.

As if they were entrances to Hell.

"Could there really be the Physical Body of the Great Sage Baoxiang inside?"

Looking at this mountain-sized mausoleum, a thought surfaced in Han Li's mind.

Although the imperial family had explored it many times, they had never seen the true corpse of the Great Sage Baoxiang.

Han Li estimated that perhaps this Supreme Paragon's mausoleum was just an empty mausoleum.

A Supreme Paragon, with heaven-reaching strength, acquiring a longevity divine medicine didn't seem difficult.

Of course, this was just his guess; whether it was true or not remained unknown.
